Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 IS USM Lens

Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 IS USM Lens is another great lens from canon. Once again though this is an expensive lens and most people may not use it to its fullest potential although I could be wrong when it comes to that as well.

Good lens but older version, heavy & slides to full zoom when hanging on neck or holster

This is a "refurbished" lens which I think means it was checked for performance and cleanliness. Don't know what else. Pros:. Best quality lens I've had, nearly half the cost of new, sturdy.

Great lens, not a huge fan of push/pull zoom

I used this lens quite a bit for outdoor sports (football, soccer, field hockey) and it works pretty well, especially on bright, sunny days. Sharpness is on par every time. IS is flawless every time I take a photo.

Great lens

Fantastic lens but, sadly too heavy for my (old) arms and shoulders. The Image quality is superb.

My GoTo lens for Sports

I shoot youth Football and Baseball and this lens lives on my camera about 6 months of the year. It's big and heavy but the breadth of range allows for flexibility that I'd otherwise need two bodies for.
Pros:
  • Consistent Output
  • Nice Bokeh
Cons:
  • Heavy

suction pump!!

I would rate it 1 start for how it was when i bought it !! cropped pictures taken from a 18-135 kit lens were better than 100-400 L !! super soft out of focus images, both on AF and MF modes !!

so far so good

First impressions good- well packaged within a quality case - only a short and sharp shoot so far but very pleased with the quality of the early morning images - little heavy for a every day shoot - quality tripod a must - and the sliding zoom takes a bit of getting used to.............
